The turns are organized in axially symmetric arrangement. Circular turns are made of nonferromagnetic conductor. The equations of the magnetic field distribution around a single turn with current were derived from the Biot-Savart law, taking into account the turn wire radius Using the Biot-Savart law, equations describing the distribution of the magnetic field around a single turn with current, taking into account the radius of the turn wire, were derived. An original relation was obtained. It which allows to calculate self inductance of a single turn and mutual inductances relative to the other turns. The inductance matrix of the individual coil turns was derived from obtained formulas.from the formula inductance matrix of turns set of the spiral coil model was built. The spiral coil inductance was derived from inductance matrix of the adopted coil modelspiral coil inductance has been described on the basis of the established coil model inductance matrix. The self inductance of the forcing coil, as well as the mutual inductance between forcing coil and the individual turns of the spiral coil were derived from the Biot-Savart lawsimilarly self inductance of the forcing coil and mutual inductance vector between the forcing turn and the each turn of spiral coil model were described. KEYWORDS: spiral coil, magnetic coupling, circumferential equation 1. Introduction The problems of electromagnetic couplings are usually modelled using by use of the finite element method. Usually the forcing current with specific frequency is assumed and the quasi-static state is considered. There is assumed the current force with a specific frequency and the quasistatic state is considered. The problem occurs when the non-sinusoidal power source is applied. In this case the system should be treated circumferentially. The basis for this approach is to determine self and mutual inductances of the coupled elements. For this purpose there can be applied the Biot-Savart law and on this basis the intensity of the magnetic field [1] can be calculated. Dimensionality of the problem is reduced to the symmetrical components of the system. The method of determining the distribution of single coil magnetic field of single 8

2 coil has been described in []. Developed method was used to define inductance of the single-layer cylindrical coil.in [] there has been developed a method determining the distribution of the magnetic field of a single turn and on this basis the single-layer cylindrical coil inductance specified. Inductance values calculated for the individual coils were compared with measurements.the inductance values for individual coils were compared with the results obtained using the multimeter. The differences between calculated values and measurements were less than 1%The values of these parameters were consistent with the calculated values to an accuracy of 1%. Very good accuracy was obtained for both the short and the long coils. It is much more difficult to determine the magnetic coupling occurring between the induced element and the forcing element. Such difficulty occurs in case of a flat circular plate where currents are induced by the currents flowing in the excitation winding. In [3] there has been studied the interaction of a single turn and circular plate, modelled as a set of concentric, magnetically coupled circular loops. After a proper transformation, the model can be used to investigate the flat spiral coil. Dependencies received in [3] were used to determine the self and mutual inductance for coaxial coils. It was assumed that the coils are made of material which is a conductor and is not ferromagnetic.. Magnetizing force and inductance of a single turn The basis for determining the inductance of a cylindrical coil or a flat spiral coil is the knowledge of the value of the magnetizing force at any point of vicinity of the coil. Basing on the Biot-Savart law the magnetizing force surrounding the circular wire is calculated. The components of the magnetizing force at the point of cylindrical coordinates (r,, z) were determined from the Biot-Savart law. From the Biot-Savart law there are determined the components of the magnetizing force at the point of cylindrical coordinates (r,, z). i R R r cos( ) H z r, Rp, R, i d (1) 3/ 4 0 r Rp R r R cos( ) i z R cos( ) H r r, z, R, i d () 3/ 4 0 r z R r R cos( ) where: i - current in the turn, r - the sliding radius, R - radius of the turn, Rp - radius of the turn wire, z - distance from the wire turn. To simplify the determination of the magnetizing force, the dimensionless variables were introduced in the forms: r z H i,, h, H odn (3) R R H R odn 83

Therefore, authors decided to approximate the dimensionless z-component of the magnetizing flux z (6) in the form: 1 z z hz, d dla, z Rp (6) R 0 Figure 1 shows the component of the magnetizing flux z obtained for ratio - radius of the turn wire to radius turn equal 1e-4. d (5) Fig. 1. The component of magnetic flux: z Applying the approximation of the component of the magnetizing flux z there were obtained the analitycal relationships with a relative uncertainty less than 1%. There has been formulated function za (Rp/R) (7) which approximates the component of magnetizing flux z (Rp/R) (7) for arguments Rp/R. The magnetiizing flux za is a function of the radius of the turn wire and the radius coil ratio.

Self and mutual inductances of spiral coil turns The spiral coil was modelled as a set of concentric turns made on a circuit printed plate. In the present configuration the radii of the spiral turns are changing in the range from r k = 0.055m to r k = m. The cross-section of the turn is a 1 x mm a rectangle with dimensions of 1 mm to mm. Turns are separated by a 1 mm distance. The spiral coil is prepared by a suitable connection of the turns on connectors. The connectors allows the shortcircuiting turns (model of plate) or the connecting it in series (spiral coil). Using equation (10) there can be determined the matrix of mutual inductances between turns in a spiral coil.,, 0,,, pp j k z k 0 r j M r r Rp i H r Rp r i r dr (10) where: r j, r k radii of subsequent turns of the spiral coil for k =

5 The inductance matrix elements of the spiral coil turns were determined based on the values of their magnetic flux and fluxes associated from other turns of the plate. 86 Fig. 3. Surface chart of the matrix elements of inductances turns Mutual inductance between the turns j-th and k-th, calculated on a height of the radius of the spiral coil wire Rp is determined by equation (10). Inductance matrix is symmetric. A surface chart in Figure 3 shows the matrix elements. For coils with a small number of turns it is not a big computational problem, but when we considered a thin plate with a large disc radius, the numerical calculations take a lot of time. The use of equation (7) with suitable input parameters significantly reduces the computation time. The analytical model relation (11) allow to determine the self and mutual inductances for the spiral coils with any physical parameters.

Magnetic couplings between a forcing turn and a spiral coil The conductive turns with resistivity ρ and cross-section of wire with the circle shape and radius of turn r k are considered. A single turn with radius R w and radius wire r pw with a forcing current induces currents in the spiral coil turns. The forcing turn is set concentrically and axially relative to turns of the spiral coil. The symmetry of the system shows that the current flowing in the coils has only an angular component. These wires are mutually magnetically coupled with each other and with the turn of the forcing coil. Figure 4 shows the considered model: a forcing turn conductive turns. The concentricity of the spiral coil planes and the excitation coil and use of the H z magnetic intensity component allowed to obtain the relations between the mutual inductances of the considered system (1). Basing on the concentric surfaces of the spiral coil and the forcing turn and using the component H z of the magnetizing force, the equation (1) allows to calculate the mutual inductance of the model tested. Similarly to (10) the magnetic flux generated by the forcing turn, penetrating through the subsequent turns of the spiral coil with the radius r k may be determined. An expression for configuration is identical for the reverse coil. r,,,, 0 k M po rk Rw z i M op rk Rw z i H z r, z,r w,i r dr (14) 0 87

System forcing turn spiral coil According to the Neumann formula inductances M op and M po are equal. To identify the parameters of the turn-coil interactions and vice versa the there has been built a measuring system was built. Voltages and currents were discretized and recorded on an oscilloscope. These values were analyzed using with use of MATLAB. Using the least squares method (LSM) parameters the coil parameters were calculated. In order to reduce interference the Savitzky-Golay filter was applied. Figure 5 shows the mutual inductances between the forcing turn and the k-th spiral coil turn. Numerical results were compared with the results obtained during from the measurements. Calculations were carried out for the forcing turn R w = m and the distance between the forcing turn and plate turns z = [0.0087, 0.011] m. Leading non-sinusoidal voltage to the terminals and forming separated spiral coil windings the characteristics of magnetic coupling between the turns of the spiral inductor modelling and the single turn has been collected. The resulting values of the mutual inductance are identical as in Figure 5. There are only minor errors caused by the electromagnetic field generated by the forcing element. Based on these results it can be concluded that the maximum value of the mutual inductances is shifted outside the radius of the forcing turn. This is caused by the electromagnetic flux distribution around the forcing coil. Three cases were analyzed: a power source separately adjusted to (1, 17, 3) wire and five magnetic coupling of adjacent turns were tested. Using LSM the mutual inductance was determined and compared with the results which were calculated numerically using equation (14), (15) - Figure 6. Mutual inductances calculated and measured are close to each other with an accuracy of approx. 1%.

System equations For the system presented at Figure 4 the equations in the following form are valid: o o op p o o o L I M I R I U ( t) po I o pp p pp p p M L I R I U ( t) (15) where: U o (t), U p (t) voltage supplied to the forcing turn and voltage across the spiral coil, I o, I p the current in the forcing turn and vector of spiral coil currents, L o, L pp, M po, M op, self and mutual inductances and R o, R pp resistances of forcing turn and spiral coil. For the spiral coil model: U 1 U ( t), I ( t) 1 I (16) sp h p p v sp where: 1 h and 1 v are horizontal and vertical vectors respectively. Multiplying left-side of the second equation (15) by 1 h and using the substitution (16) the system of equations (15) can be written as: L I o M 1 I sp R I U ( t) o op v o o o 1 M I o 1 L 1 I sp 1 R 1 I U ( t) h po h pp v h pp v sp sp After transforming the system of equations (17) can be rewritten as: L I o M I sp R I U ( t) o osp o o o M I o L I sp R I U ( t) spo sp sp sp sp (17) (18) where it was determined as follows: U o (t), U sp (t) forcing turn voltage and the spiral coil voltage, I o, I sp current in the forcing turn and spiral coil currents vector, L o, L sp, M spo, M osp, self and mutual inductances and R o, R sp resistances of forcing turn and spiral coil. To determine the system response to non-nonsinusoidal forcing, the Laplace transformation may be used. At zero initial conditions and spiral coil loaded with a resistance with a value of R m = 0.55 Ω the following formulas may by derived from equation (18): sl sp Rsp Rm Io( s) Uo( s) (19) sl R sl R R s M M o o sp sp m osp spo sm spo Isp ( s) Uo( s) (0) sl R sl R R s M M o o sp sp m osp spo All the parameters of self and mutual inductance between the coils and resistances of individual coils can be identified by applying the LSM to the 90

10 system of equations (18). Assuming that the mutual inductances are equal, the system of equations (18) can be written in a matrix form. For numerical calculations we perform concatenation of input values along the columns which allows to determine the magnitude of the researched quantities describing the magnetic coupling of the tested system: Io Isp 0 Io 0 T Uo Lo M osp Lsp Ro R sp (1) Usp 0 Io Isp 0 Isp 6. Final remarks A spiral coil can be modelled as a set of circular turns connected in series, but the radius of the turn wire has to be taken into account. The fact that the results of calculated and measured parameters are close, shows that the model is correct and provides a basis for modelling more complex configurations of systems such as: turn - conductive plate. Models of a single turn and a spiral coil allow the creation of a multi-layered cylindrical coil model. References [1] H. Rawa.: Electricity and magnetism in technology.
